I think it is clear that white people have built a systemically racist society that keeps non-whites impoverished.
White privilege means that white people have an open lane to the top and meanwhile non-whites can't be held accountable for their actions as they are oppressed and helpless inside of the US.
I'm white and work hard for what I have. I don't apologize for being white. Just because one is African American doesn't mean one can't succeed. Blacks playing the woe is me race card is getting old. And like Biden basically said, you're stupid and ain't REALLY black if you don't vote for him. He's racist and wants to keep you where he thinks you belong (down on the plantation). President Trump has done more for blacks in 3 years than Biden has done in 45 years as part of the Washington Swamp/Establishment! Obama made matters worse for blacks by doing NOTHING for them during his 8 YEARS of all talk and no action!! Obama's record speaks for itself. Trump/AMERICA 2020

I can't speak to the entire country, but where I work (75,000 employees) people of color, particularly women, are fast tracked to the top. They're way over represented in executive positions relative to the work force in general. Some are spectacularly good at their jobs and absolutely deserve it. Others, not so much. An interesting side effect is that some POC/women who truly earned their positions are miffed (rightfully so) that unqualified POC/women are being promoted because it diminishes their accomplishments.

I worked for a Fortune 500 corp. Pretty much saw the same thing. The only thing holding them back was themselves. Asian women weren't in the fast track club. Hispanic and blacks only, all others need not apply.

We Indian Americans cannot qualify as "people of color" no matter how dark we are just because the term "people of color" has been redefined NOT by the color of one's skin but by being underrepresented in certain sectors.
